I got home and immediately made some compote to go over my vanilla yogurt in the morning, but I still had a little left and shamefully, it managed to stay on my kitchen counter since then. Unused and unhappy. Until this afternoon when I was inspired to make a batch of pretty darn yummy rhubarb muffins. And, added bonus- they're healthy too! No butter or oil, raw cane sugar and spelt flour make them a relatively guilt-free snack or fun breakfast. I'm going to give them to my teen to take to school as a mid-morning snack. Just yesterday she was complainig that she was rather bored of bananas. These will go down well, I bet...
Here's the recipe:

Can I have one, please ;-)? I love rhubarb too; the colour, the smell, the taste... everything! I roasted some rhubarb in the oven last week for a lovely dessert (still have to post it, loved it!). I've never had rhubarb muffins before but I just know they're good!
Of course you may! You bring some of those treats you made with Rachel and I'll bring the muffins and pink bubbles! :)
